A glass of water when you`re thirsty
a place to crash when you`re tired
a nice meal when you`re hungry
warm room during the cold winter
The voice of your mother when you`re sick
the laugh of your children when you`re happy
a cup of coffee in the morning
Binoculars at nudist beach... grin

Post-modernism focuses on the narrative. The "meaning" is within the context of the question. One could ask: "What is meaning?" and it would be just as relevant. Since "meaning" is based on "context", then we begin to see the ultimate issue, and paradox, with how you phrase your question.

We have several definitions of "life" within the scientific community, and so far as we know, the only "life" that seeks "meaning" is humanity.

Semantically, we could ask "What does life mean?". Within that framework, several options begin to appear. We don't currently classify rocks and minerals as "alive". However, they do exist, as a good clout to the head with a sizable chunk of granite will illustrate.

Do rocks and minerals have meaning? Do they seek meaning? They exist, but do they care? And if they do, how are we to judge their views on such an absurd concept, as to them it must seem, that which we currently qualify as "alive"?

A virus, by the current scientific definitions, is not alive. It does, however, affect that which is defined as "alive", so by definition, it has context, and should be considered alive, in the sense that its meaning affects larger contexts than itself.

So, ultimately, as the above illustrates, meaning is context dependent, and as such, life is a quid pro quo of that context. Meaning is derived from the context, and that context is living. We affect the larger framework (the "narrative" in Post-modernism), we have significance, but as to meaning, that is a philosophical exercise in futility.
